Platform Lift & Home Lift
Installation Brentwood

The cost of a platform lift in Brentwood depends on the height of travel, the type of lift and how much preparation your property needs. A through-floor home lift is generally the most affordable choice, while commercial projects vary by building. After looking at your home or premises, we provide a clear no-obligation quotation, and there is no charge for the initial conversation.

Most home lifts in Brentwood are installed entirely inside the property, so planning permission is rarely required. Listed buildings and homes within the Brentwood Town Centre or Hutton Village conservation areas can carry additional controls, especially for external alterations. We will identify anything that may need consent and advise on the relevant building regulations before any work starts.

Most platform lift installations in Brentwood take between 3 and 5 days. The OnLevel lift is manufactured in the factory and needs only a shallow 150mm pit, so there is no drawn-out construction phase in your home. We confirm the full programme with you beforehand, so you know when each stage will take place and when the lift will be ready.

Yes. Brentwood has plenty of period housing, from the Edwardian villas around Shenfield Road to the character homes of Hutton Village, and OnLevel lifts are well suited to them. The small footprint and 150mm pit mean a lift can usually be fitted beside an existing staircase with only modest structural work, even in older or unusually shaped homes.

It depends on what you need. A stairlift carries one seated user along the stairs, whereas a platform lift travels vertically between floors and takes a wheelchair, frame or scooter with you. For many Brentwood households, particularly wheelchair users or couples who both want to use it, a platform lift gives greater independence and can add lasting value to the home.

Yes. We provide ongoing servicing and maintenance for every lift we install across Brentwood and the surrounding borough, from Shenfield and Hutton out to Pilgrims Hatch and the villages. Regular servicing keeps your lift safe, dependable and compliant with the relevant standards, and our engineers are available whenever you need a repair or a scheduled inspection.

Less than most people imagine. An OnLevel platform lift requires only a 150mm pit and no separate machine room, so it fits into a compact corner or alongside an existing staircase. That makes it workable even in the smaller terraced homes near Brentwood town centre, where there would be no room for a conventional shaft-built lift.

Yes. Our engineers hold SafeContractor accreditation under registration CN8516, and every lift we install in Brentwood meets the EN 81-41 safety standard alongside Part M of the Building Regulations and BS 8300:2018. All work is completed by our own trained teams rather than subcontractors, and handed over fully certified and ready for use.
